PARNELL SPEAKS

Mr.. Parnell may be in bad health, but
he certainly has not lost any of his fer
vor in advocating the Irish cause, nor
has he forgotten how to knock holes in
in the arguments of those opposed to
his great scheme of self-government for
Ireland. His speech in the British
House of Commons the other night on
the proposed coercion bill was one Of his
greatest efforts. 1t combined logic
with sarcasm, and is believed by the
Liberals to have completely pulverized
Balfour's case. We would like to print
the speech in full, but will have to con-
tent ourselves, owing to lack of space,
with giving fewpoints made against CO.
ercion by the great Irish leader. In dis
cussing the provisions of the bill Mr..
Parnell commended the powers given to
magistrates would enable them to send
political opponents to prison for six
months, to plank bed and prison diet.
The proposed change Of venue trial,
bringing Irishmen before special Eng
lish juries, brought forth singing re-
buke from the Irish leader. He said
that no part of previous coercion acts
had excited so much distrust of Eng
fish justice as this. The proposal, he
said, meant judicial murder it meant
that all the hopes for better times,
which seemed dawning upon Ireland,
would disappear that a system of sub
ornation of witnesses and wholesale per-
jury before partisan juries was to prevail,
sending innocent persons to the scat
fold and convicts to the cell. 'sWhat
is the only state Of society that can
arise under this reign Of terror?' in
terrogated Mr.. Parnell, and he an
swered his own question by stating
that secret societies would spring up,
fostered by sufferings of the oppressed
nation. and those who had been per-
sistent in counselling the people to OBJ
serve patience and moderation might
counsel in vain. but he would still coun-

PLAIN TALK,

In previous issues we have referred to
the inhuman treatment of the Marquis
of Landsdowne's tenantry in Ireland.
The Canadian papers have taken up the
cudgels against the Marquis, and are
handling him without gloves. The
True Witness, after going into the de-
tails of the manner in which Lands
downe's ancestors came by their Irish
estates, says:
"Were the Marquis of Landsdowne a
man to whom the ordinary amenities of
life should be extended, some softening
might be given to the terms by which
bis conduct must be characterized. But
he is not, unless meanness, stinginess,
cowardice and brutal disregard for
everything not itutary to the heredi-
tary spirit of avarice be considered as
virtues 1t gives us the greatest pain
to be compelled to write thus of one
who occupies a position that ought to
command respect. But were there
terms that could fifty describe an evict-
ing Irish landlord and every syllable
were a bolt of blasting lighting they
would not be too severe for man who
by the order to evict virtually pro-
nounces sentence of death on old men
and women and innocent little chill
dren."
The Irish Canadian, a paper that has
always been noted for plain speaking,
sustains its record in the following
words:
sShould the work of eviction con-
tinue, the probability is that the Cana
dian people will be heard from on the
subject. If we are to have an i'm
ported figure head for the Government
of this country, let us have enc un-
tainted with the rack rent leprosy; let
us have man not utterly heartless-a
man not prepared to avail himself of
Balfour's 'Don't-hesitate-to shoot pol
icy in the collection of his immoral tax.
If Lord Landsdowne wishes to play the
tyrant he had better betake himself to
more congenial pastures, for in Canada
he will be ont of place. He costs us in
round numbers about 100000 per an
mum; and many of those out of whose
pockets this enormous sum is filched
are the kith and kin of his victims in
Queens County. They, at least, will
not tamely submit to have insult added
to injury by the presence in their midst
of an Irish landlord bleeding his ten
ants to death, propped up the while
and maintained in his position at their
expense; and his Excellency must do
one thing or the ether. He must stop
his villainous evictions, or leave
Canada"
We could quote many similar extracts
from Canadian papers on this subject,
but the above is sufficient to show that
it will not increase Lord Landsdowne's
popularity in the Dominion to treat his
Irish tenants with cruelty. If he knows
what is to his interests he will instruct
his agent to desist in his horrible work
of eviction.
The Irish standard., 1887-04-09
COERCION.

At every turn in the thorny path
which the Tories are pursuing they are
met with the bold front of the Liberals
and Nationalist, who expose the fall
lacy of the brutal and shocking theory
of coercion as remedy for the discon-
tent.in Ireland. The body of the bill
has been thoroughly anatomical and
during the progress of the process OF
dissection every cut of the knife threw
some more light on the manner by
which Salisbury & Co. will endeavor to
prevent the Irish people from attempt
ing to secure redress for their griev-
ances. There can be no doubt but that
the construction of the bill was the
haudiwork of a person, or persons,
who had made a study Of the practises
of the greatest tyrants Of this or any
other age. Nothing has been left un-
done that will fitch from Ireland the
last vestige of liberty. The bill does
not say in words that it will be illegal
for an Irishman to breathe the free air
of heaven, but if it becomes law, some
clause in it will be Interpreted to that
effect, and then the public executioner
will attend to the rest. 1t is scarcely
likely that this latest attempt to pro-
mulgate reign of despotism in Ireland
will be able to withstand the onslaughts
of the opposition, but, should it pass, it
will be contested at the point of the
bayonet in strong and willing hands.
The time for arguing has passed. The
British Government must do justice to
Ireland or take the consequences. 1t
is no longer a question of how Salisbury
can govern Ireland, but how he can pre-
tend to govern the Empire without the
consent of Ireland. Irishmen will no
longer submit to be governed against
their will. AS long as there is any
prospect of future success by remaining
peaceful they will pursue the peace
policy, but the last life on Irish soil will
be offered up as sacrifice before such
an Infamous law as the one proposed
will be permitted to be carried out with
the effect intended. At no time in the
history of the great Irish struggle have
the people been so we'll prepared to re.
pei the advance of the foe. Unity pre-
walls throughout every movement of
the Nationalists, and the Tories will be
opposed by force that has now as
sumed gigantic dimensions.
The Irish standard., 1887-04-09

than retaliate or do anything that
might drive Mr.. Gladstone from their
side, or increase his difficulties or place
him in false position with the Lib
erals. He hoped the people of Ireland
would not fall into the tolls thus set for
them. While he greatly feared the re-
suits of the bill, he would not cease to
tell them the situation is entirely differ
ent from what it was FIVE years ago. and
that for them victory is certain. The
battle, he continued, was now won in
Ireland. There might be much suffer-
ing and tyranny to be endured, but
they could be as nothing compared with
what Irish people have gone through in
the past. MI. Parnell believed thatthe bill
would disappear before brighter times.
when Mr.. Gladstone would be able to
appeal once more to the sense of justice
of the people of Great Britain and re-
ceive full power to do right to Ireland.
From the foregoing synopsis it will be
observed that Mr.. Parnell most eff
fectually dissected the dangerous and
Ubiquitous legislation proposed by the
Government. To prove that he per-
formed his duty in an admirable man.
ner it is only necessary to add that he
was repeatedly applauded by Mr.. Glad
stone and other members of the Lib
eral party, and, what is much better, it
is stated on good authority, that he is
now in better condition than at any
time during his parliamentary career to
carry on successful fight against the
the despoilers of his dearly-beloved

LORD SELBoRNE, a Liberal Unionist
is the latest Englishman who has de-
cided to win his spurs by attacking the
Irish priesthood. In recent article,
he asks, "By what claim do they stand
above the laws % If his lordship had
asked, 'By what claim do they stand
above the despotic laws manufactured
by England to crush Ireland into hum
iJiating submission to British tyranny ?"
he would have come nearer the mark,
and the answer would have been, by
their right as opponents Of Gods d.
vine commands, and in the interests Of
humanity at large. The Irish priesthood
have always befriended the common
people, and no amount of lying insinua-
lions by men like Lord Selborne will
will swerve them one inch from the
path of duty.
